Описание
Итог:Although the relationship between Christianity and science is often seen as one of conflict, there has been a quiet revolution for the last several decades led by professional historians representing the fruitful and complex interconnections of science and religion. As a pioneer inthis research, Dr. Peter Harrison shares that the "conflict myth" arises out of the way in which we conceptualize phenomena, not by phenomena themselves. He suggests that the solution lies not in attempting to adjudicate between competing propositions, but in coming to understandthat we should not be conceptualizing religions or sciences primarily in terms of some propositional content. He also discusses the secularization of society and how "universal" categories are often contingent on historical narrative framing, such as the West's framing basedon the narrative of progress. He ends by discussing the crucial role of social scientists in continuing the interactive between science and religion.
